This Blog focuses on Ancestor Stories, both the stories themselves about my family’s ancestors and discussions of where they come from and how to prepare and share them. These stories may be non-fiction or fiction – we will always tell which is which, of course. Also see my KINNICK blog and The HOMEPLACE Series Blog, left sidebar, scroll down.

I am posting this photo, which is also from LVene's 1991 Smith book, because it relates very well to the '75 Year Ago' post next Tuesday - although this photo is 1938, and the '75 Years Ago' reference is 1936 - it is virtually all the same people, and same time of year, in the same location (the Homeplace)! ;-)

My, you have your families nicely organized! I am jealous... Oh, well. My Smith side, thanks to LVene's research, is small and very well known, on this side of the pond. She also researched her Thomas side, and I see no connections.I do appreciate the interest and the question. You are a very faithful follower, if not a cousin! ;-)
